In this photo a young boy weeps as he leaves the US Mexican border wall where he visited his grandmother who is dying of cancer. This inhumane wall that separates children from grandparents, parents from children, shows the immorality of a system that cares nothing for human life, only values profit. This wall, an attack on those whose labor is no longer needed, is the billionaires attempt to blame the country’s joblessness on immigrant workers. But the wall can’t hide the fact that growing numbers of workers of all colors and nationalities are being permanently thrown out of automated factories and fields. The rulers do not need our labor on the scale they once did. Their twin corporate parties foment divisions with mass deportations and walls because they have no solution to the elimination of jobs by electronics. They have to keep us disunited. We are one class and we are beginning to show it. Growing numbers of us are coming together around our common struggles for life itself.
Tear down the wall!
